To make progress and get the detailed responses that you need, I have just spoken to the advisers. We do not have an adviser to hand with that specific detail, but I have put in a request to speak to the office of Minister Brendan O’Connor. We have until tomorrow to debate the package, so we will put in a call to Brendan O’Connor’s office and make sure that there is an official available who is able to provide the detailed responses you are seeking, hopefully by resumption tomorrow. Because we are in committee and out of respect for the committee and all senators, the information which you are given—the detailed material you have sought—will be provided to the Senate as well.
